[Yr11 Information Technology] Unit 1 Outcome 2 clarification

[Mark Kelly]

It does sound a bit basic.

I suppose if kids can identify input devices (e.g. keyboard and barcode 
reader) and how they can provide input to the database and that the DBMS 
and OS work together to send data to be stored on a HDD then they've 
satisfied the key skill.

Yes - that key skill does sound a little odd sitting amongst all the 
other database-specific skills.
